Chlorinated
stripped bare
i stood quivering
breathing the air
sweaty and staggering
rectangular sanctum
in front of me
offer the purity that autumn
lacked so desperately
wading through
this mass anew
i question my own motives
for leaving you
frustrated now
i rise to the ground
unfamiliar affections are overrated
the pool is chlorinated
